Absorption of sunlight by atmospheric sodium using a Fabry-Perot spectrometer and a sodium vapour cell
<p>A low-resolution Fabry-Perot spectrometer was used in conjunction with a sodium vapour cell to observe the terrestrial absorption by sodium. By observing the variation of absorption with the solar elevation, the sodium abundance was determined. The abundances of sodium obtained were in the...
